Trying to follow the instructions to move most of zubuntu to the internal flash to try to make the system work quickly and independent of the SDCard. I have found that the kexecboot will not see the boot folder on the /dev/mtdblock3 but will see it on /dev/mtdblock2.
I am using the updater and tools from the PDAXii3 site to resize the root mtd partition to 121 and see if that works. we will see Baz |

Thanks for the info ant. Do those kernels scan the nand any faster? Whatever kexec kernel I am currently using will sit there for like 2 minutes trying to read the nand.

Yeah, detection of jffs2 images is painfully slow...I hope someone will rewrite the code but the real speedup will come when UBI/UBIFS will be used instead of JFFS2. BTW I had better results on my very-old SD card (around 25-30 secs): http://fr.pastebin.ca/1877331 (no images on nand) http://fr.pastebin.ca/1877332 (2 images on nand) Regards Andrea |
